NBFA TENS Pain Relief Machines

“I have not had the use of a TENS machine before, my hope is that it will give me relief from this fierce pain and help me live a more active life. Thank you”

For some older people a TENS Pain Relief Machine can be the difference between being alive and living a life. A TENS Machine is an electronic pain relief system, which can provide long-term pain relief for chronic conditions, such as arthritis. Painkillers are often not strong enough to dull the pain sufficiently but the TENS Machine, (which delivers small electrical pulses through electrodes attached to the skin by a small pad), can all but remove the pain entirely.

NBFA continues to enable over 600 pensioners a year to have Pain Relief Machines at home.

Please ring the NBFA office on 0207 828 0200 if you are over 60 and on a low income and if you think you might be interested in this service.

We also provide Pain Relief Machines to pain and physiotherapy departments in hospitals and to hospices who work with older people so their patients can try them out under supervision and apply for a machine if they find it helpful.

If you are a physiotherapist or a doctor in need of TENS Machines do not hesitate to contact our office and apply for a gift of Pain Relief Machines to your department.
